Rolled my truck, and I walked away
I was towing a buddy's car 250 miles back to his house when the trailer started locking up and swaying side to side, Spun me around backwards and off the road, Ended up rubber side up

The great thing is that I crawled out and walked away.

Glad your ok! Praise the lord!! wonder what made your trailer go haywire on you?? Brings to mind a buddy of mine was towing a race car on a flat bed trailer with a f-250 4x4 same thing happened to them at about 60mph going downhill on the expressway, their problem was they had the car loaded backward too much rear trailer weight once it started swaying it jacknifed the truck they didnt roll it but it severly damaged the bed and frame!! Again glad your here with us!

Welcome to the Rollover club
We totaled an 03 Dodg Cummis and 30 foot travel trailer. It happend much the same way. But we rolled over and ended upright Facing backwords. Thank goodness for seat belts. We walked away all in one piece even the dog was fine.

Wow, you're blessed to walk away.

The safety cage (if that term even applies to trucks) doesn't seem to have held up too well in the back. Any rear seat passengers might be a few inches shorter if they would have made it out at all...

Jesus! It's a good thing everyone is OK and we can ask the questions like "Why did the trailer lock up?" without someones life being being lost to find the answer.

Any idea what made it happen?

Really glad you're OK. Trucks can be replaced. Hopefully with a newer one.
